Nikon D5000 v D7000?

I currently have a Nikon D5000 that I'm beginning to outgrow. I'd like to upgrade to a new Nikon without completely breaking the bank! Would I see a significant improvement in image quality with a D7000? Very vague question I understand, but all input is appreciated!

Windows Vista Help URGENT?!

I have a disc from a family vacation but need the pictures TODAY for a gift! It's just a few pictures, taken with a nikon, that were properly uploaded onto a computer and then given to me. My laptop runs vista, and loads audio discs with NO problem, but when i insert the disc, first, it doesnt even give me options to view the files, and when i go to "my computer" it shows the disc, and shows that theres 720 MB of data on it but then the window says not responding when i click on the disc. I have reinstalled the driver, rebooted the computer, cleaned out old drivers… What can i do to get these pictures?!

Deciding on speedlights and wireless triggers?

Hi, I'm thinking on getting a speedlight for my photography. I have decided on Yongnuo YN-560iii as they are great speedlights for their price. My first quetion is whether I should buy only 1 speedlight or two as on Strobist.com and many other sites and such, I have seen that a double speedlight setup results in much more creative control, espcially for some of the shots I have in mind.

Second question is, can a Yongnuo RF-603 C1 flash work with a Nikon D3200 or are there some limitations? I know the cable release won't work, but doesn't the thing act as a wireless camera trigger? Please explain in depth.

Thanks in advance

Nikon P520 not connecting to photo transfer?

I plugged the camera in (turned off) to my computer using the USB cord and Nikon Photo Transfer immediately opened up, but was not finding a source.

Then, I tried opening Nikon Photo Transfer first and then plugging in the camera. No dice.

I tried charging the camera for an hour before trying again.

When I plug the camera into the computer the on/off button turns on for a few seconds and then off, and then the charging light starts blinking.
